I see you! Not just the color of your eyes or hair, or how tall you are. I see YOU……Your beautiful soul……and who you truly are. Sure, our exterior can play a role in our life experiences and give us both positive and negative imprints on our hearts and minds. (I know I’ve experienced plenty of both in my life!)

What about those special moments when you lock eyes with someone and you just know that you know them? It isn’t knowing them because you met them somewhere before (were we old co-workers? the PTA?)…..it’s knowing their soul. I have met quite a few people in passing, whether at a store or on the street, where we’ve locked eyes, and both just know somehow. We give each other a little smile and a head nod, and go on our way.

And then there’s the really special times; you meet someone and you have this little gasp. Those times when you say, “I feel like we’ve met before”, “I feel like we’ve known each other our whole lives!”. It could happen when you meet your future life partner. It could happen when you meet the person who becomes your best friend. Your souls know one another! You could come from the same soul family, or you’ve experienced previous lives together before, and your souls determined before you entered this life that you would meet and help one another with certain life experiences we are to have on earth this go-around.

Next time you’re out, slow down and pay attention. Look past people’s clothing, any physical disability, the color of their skin or hair, their tattoos, etc. Look into their eyes. They truly are the window to the soul!

I’m sharing the link to Cyndi Lauper’s song, “True Colors”, because it reminds of this. Seeing someone’s true colors is the same as seeing their soul, who they truly are. Whether bad or good, you are really seeing them.

Around ten percent of people will fit into more than one Earth Angel Realm, and are unclear as to their particular realm. Here are some points to consider:

ENERGY: TUNE INTO YOUR OVERALL “ENERGY BLUEPRINT”

THE ENERGY OF A:

Incarnated Angel is sweet and loving, while an Incarnated Elemental is warm, playful, and mischievous. A Starperson is helpful, cool, and detached and a Wise One is serious, intense, and regal. A Leprechaun alternates between serious and silly, and a Mystic Angel is serious, intense, sweet and loving. A Merperson varies between being rebellious and acquiescent, while aKnight Paladin is attentive and polite, yet socially awkward.

Wise Ones have long faces with far-away expressions in their eyes. They wear dark-colored flowing shirts & dresses, and often have long, prematurely gray hair. Leprechauns prefer to wear green and earth-tone colored clothing, and many really look like leprechauns! They also have a twinkle in their eyes most of the time. Mystic Angels have an attractive face, large body, and very serious facial expression. Merpersonfemales have hourglass-like curvy bodies. Their eyes tend to have green in them, and their hair tends to have red in it. Male & female Merpersons prefer long hair. They often wear blue, turquoise, or teal colored clothing.

“Seeing death as the end of life is like seeing the horizon as the end of the ocean” ~ David Searls, Author

I had the greatest pleasure and honor to attend two seances with renowned Physical Medium, David Thompson, earlier this year and my experience still gives me the goose bumps. It was the most amazing experience – second only to giving birth to my children – that I have had thus far in my life.

Before the séance begins, and in view of all, David is strapped down to an armchair by two of the séance attendees and his assistant. After he is taken care of and the room is checked by us to ensure our own minds that there’s no trick wires, etc. around, the lights are turned off, and we began by singing several songs to raise the energy in the room. Before we knew it, we heard a few heavy footsteps and a voice welcoming us. As the spirit moved about the room we could see his form, hear, and when he came close, feel his footsteps. This spirit, William, answered questions asked by us and if we chose, he would place his hand on our head. Yes, that’s right, I could feel his hand upon the top of my head as surely as anyone in the physical would do. When I commented how warm and large his hand is, he answered, “Yes, of course, my dear.”

Another spirit who visited with us was young Timothy. He flew a trumpet (with glow-in-the-dark tape on it so we could see it in the dark) around the room, whizzing it by us. Some people were tapped on the head with it, or he stopped it right in front of their face. All, however, could feel the breeze it created as it flew by! On one of the nights, he held a glow-in-the-dark rubber ball in his hand and walked around the room so everyone could see. When he came to me, he hand bumped into me, then his little feet tapped mine and I could see his hand from his fingertips to his wrist holding that ball. Just amazing! And Timothy has quite the sense of humor as well!

There was a few other spirits who visited us, and they also brought through a few departed loved ones of a few members of the groups. Again, it was an absolute amazing experience, and I encourage all who are interested to attend a physical medium séance. I know I look forward to the day that I can share this experience with my family and friends, as my words are not enough to describe my experience. David Thompson lives in Australia, and travels part of the year to do workshops and seances. Please check his website for his schedule and to receive more information about him.

If you still don’t know your realm, you may come from an as-yet-undiscovered realm. Or you may be an “Evolving Soul” or a “Shapeshifter”. That means that you’re either moving from one realm to the next, or are hopscotching through the realms for the sake of variety and growth.

THE EVOLVING SOUL

If you are an Evolving Soul, you’re moving from one realm to the next, so you may not identify with one particular group. Perhaps you’ve spent many lifetimes in one realm and have learned everything you can from this experience, so you elect to enter a new realm. You don’t identify fully with the group you just left or the group you’re newly joining.

If this sounds like you, give yourself time to adjust to the new group, and don’t judge yourself harshly for feeling disconnected. Earth Angels in the Evolving Soul category can feel doubly alienated – not only do you feel separate from humans, but you feel different from the other Earth Angels as well! It can feel like being the last kid picked for a softball team: unwanted and unappreciated.

Know that these are temporary feelings, and pray for spiritual assistance to know that you’re not alone and that you are wanted and appreciated. After all, you were very brave to switch to a new realm, and you probably did so out of the noble intention to be extra helpful to the world!

THE SHAPESHIFTER

Some souls desire variety, excitement, and a wealth of experience. If you’re a Shapeshifter, like a kid in the candy store, you can’t decide what you want, so you select everything on the menu. The Shapeshifters are Earth Angels who move from realm to realm. You never quite settle into one particular realm family. Instead, you graze from the highlights that each realm has to offer. Simultaneously, you bring gifts to each realm from the lessons you’ve learned while in the other Earth Angel realms. Shapeshifters rapidly adapt to new situations and people, much like children who move a lot and attend different schools, yet develop the ability to quickly fit in.

If you’re an Evolving Soul or a Shapeshifter, you’re like a honeybee going from flower to flower, taking and bringing nourishment as you travel. You provide valuable services because you infuse the realms with fresh blood, new ideas, and awakened vitality.

Evolving Souls and Shapeshifters fall into two distinct groups: the Independent Thinkers and the Adaptors. Independent Thinkers are take-charge individuals and radical non-conformists who take pride in being outsiders. They believe that “normalcy” is tantamount to being sentenced to mediocrity. Independent Thinkers are champions of humanitarian and environmentalist causes – unless the causes are too popular. Independent Thinkers don’t like to be trendy, and they desire their own unique niche outside of the mass populace.

Independent Thinkers, not surprisingly, do best in self-employment work geared around artistic or inventive pursuits. They don’t enjoy systems, rules, or guidelines from outside “authorities”. Ideal careers for Independent Thinkers would be the fine arts, craft-work, publishing, writing, or photography.

Shapeshifters love any career that offers them excitement and an opportunity to learn. They’re better at working with the public than the Independent Thinkers. Ideal careers would be travel (working as a tour guide or working on a cruise ship), being a talent agent or scout (making other people’s dreams come true), and any sales work involving a product or service that the Shapeshifter truly believes in.

GUIDANCE & SUGGESTIONS

Respect your decision for independence. Souls in this non-realm are generally nonconformists and rabble-rousers. The earth needs your strength and power right now, so please don’t dilute it by trying to fit in to any particular group (unless it comes naturally).

Teach freedom. Too many humans allow themselves to be controlled by reigning authorities. By your refusal to conform or be tied down, you teach them alternatives. The more that you can do to garner personal happiness and peace, the more effective your teachings will be. Remember that you teach first by example, and then formal teaching opportunities arise as you allow them.

Manifest, manifest, manifest. Because you tend to work outside of systems, you need to rely upon your personal manifestation power to sustain you materially. Remember that there are no neutral thoughts or words, so everything you say and think creates your future. Therefore, think about what you desire, not about what you fear.

I hope you’ve enjoyed this series on Doreen Virtue’s book, Realms of The Earth Angels. It’s been my pleasure to share and discuss it with you. As always, please leave a comment for me if you have any questions or thoughts to share.

“One minute when you look into a Leprechaun’s eyes you see the serious intensity of a wise teacher. The next minute, though, you’ll see the mischievous look of a seven-year-old who’s about to play a prank.”

LEPRECHAUNS

When we think of Leprechauns, little men in green suits come to mind. However, the Earth Angels realm of Leprechauns includes a wide variety of body shapes, sizes, and clothing styles. There are both male and female Leprechauns, and many members of this realm do look like giant Leprechauns. Yet, it’s what’s on the inside rather than outside that distinguishes this realm from the others.

Leprechauns are half Wise Ones and half Incarnated Elementals. They have the wisdom that comes from many lifetimes on earth, a down-to-earth common sense approach to life, a deep connection to nature, and a wicked sense of humor. They possess ancient knowledge about magic, healing, and manifestation like Wise Ones from other cultures. As Leprechauns, they express the Elemental characteristics of living inter-dimensionally, with a strong connection to nature.

They go back and forth between serious teachers and rowdy jokesters. They lecture you one minute, and then tickle you the next. Even though we think of Leprechauns as red-bearded little men with paunches and green outfits, the members of this realm can look as gorgeous as fashion models. Many members of this realm do have touches of Leprechaun looks, whether it’s a penchant for wearing green t-shirts, reddish hair, a ruddy complexion, or even a bit of a tummy paunch.

Leprechauns make wonderfully entertaining teachers who keep their students enthralled and interested. They’re wonderful storytellers, yet their tales always have important messages. As long as you can weather their different moods and occasional flirtations, Leprechauns make wonderful friends and romantic partners. You’ll never be bored with a member of this realm, that’s for sure!

“The majority of Merpeople have green coloring in their eyes.”

MERPEOPLE

Like Leprechauns, Merpeople are hybrids from the Elemental realm, so they also possess playful and mischievous sides. In Doreen Virtue’s book, Goddesses & Angels, she has the following survey results of people who said they knew they were Merpeople. Most based this opinion on the fact that they matched her descriptions, they had to live near water, and they’d identified with mermaids or mermen since childhood.

Of all the measures on the survey, the significant factors were:

82% had a natural red tint or highlights in their hair

82% preferred to wear their hair long (89% of just the females surveyed)

79% had naturally curly or wavy hair

69% had green in their eyes

85% reported being frequently or constantly thirsty for water

80% said they felt cold often, even in warm weather

The 82% of red and auburn-haired respondents eclipses the estimated 2 – 10% of people with naturally red or auburn hair in the general population. Apparently, red hair is a genetic anomaly. At one time, red-haired women were accused of witchcraft. In the 16th and 17th centuries, red-headed European women were put to death during the witch-hunting crusades. Could they have been Merpeople who retained their magical abilities and knowledge?

As previously mentioned, Merpeople must live near bodies of water to feel happy and healthy. Merfairies are drawn to rivers and lakes, while Merangels, Mystic Mers, and Star Mers feel connected to the ocean. Many Merpeople have memories of, or are attracted to, stories of Atlantis and Lemuria, which are two ancient civilizations.

As with other realms, Merpeople look like their spiritual counterparts. Female Merpeople resemble mermaids with hourglass, curvy figures and a penchant for wearing turquoise water-colored clothing. Mermen look athletic, trim, and outdoorsy. Both genders prefer wearing their hair long, and their tresses have natural waves. The majority have a naturally red tint in their hair.

Merpeople report feeling cold easily, and they prefer to vacation or live in tropical climates. As much as they love to swim, though, Merpeople avoid chlorinated swimming pools because they’re sensitive to the smell and feel of chlorine. They are frequently thirsty, usually have a bottle of water at hand, and they are very choosy as to which brand of bottled water they drink. They often crave seaweed salad, sea vegetables, and nori – probably because their bodies need the special sea-based nutrients. Most people love dolphins, but Merpeople are fanatical about them! They also love whales, seabirds, seahorses, dragonflies, and other water-dwelling beings.

There are Merpeople subcategories, which include:

MERANGELS

As a hybrid of half Incarnated Angel and half Elemental (Mer is part of the Elemental realm), Merangels go between being naughty and nice. Female Merangels may resemble Incarnated Angels, with their voluptuous bodies; heart-shaped, youthful faces; and tumbling, highlighted hair. Yet, they are Incarnated Angels who’ve lived on the edge. They may have histories of drug and alcohol abuse, relationship betrayals, and even criminal records. Their hearts, though, are purely angelic at the core.

MERFAIRIES

This hybrid is 100% Elemental, so Merfairies have no apologies about being party animals at the ocean, lakes, or rivers. They enjoy cocktails while watching seaside sunsets, boating, or lazing on a beach. Merfairies may be perfectionistic about their romantic partners, which may lead to a long succession of boyfriends or girlfriends. Yet, they will tell you that they’re trying to find lifelong satisfaction, in the form of a FUN, financially secure relationship. Note the capitalized FUN! Merfairies love to camp, hike, and be next to lakes and rivers set in the mountains. They have a special bond with the water fairies, which are called sprites, undines, and dragonflies.

STAR-MERS

Starpeople love being near the ocean, but this hybrid is especially drawn to the sea. Star-Mers are loners who prefer to sail, swim, surf, scuba dive, or snorkel by themselves (or with one trusted and special companion). They especially love to look at the starry skies while drifting on a boat in the middle of the ocean. They connect to their home planets through the energy of the water’s ions.

MYSTIC MERS

This hybrid realm is a blend of Merperson and Wise One. They have the edgy Elemental personality combined with the seriousness of Wise Ones. They love to teach, especially about dolphins, whales, Atlantis, ocean ecology, scuba diving, sailing, or any other wisdom related to the ocean.

INCARNATED DOLPHINS

This hybrid consists of dolphins who have taken on human form so that their message is clearly heard by people. Yet, their appearance belies their true identity. Incarnated Dolphins’ bodies are shaped like actual dolphin bodies. Their slightly protruding belly casts their body in the same dimensions as an American football. Most Incarnated Dolphins have gray eyes, just like oceanic dolphins. They chuckle with the same snickering laugh as ocean-dwelling dolphins. Most Incarnated Dolphins have sea-related professions such as marine biologist, oceanographer, boat captain. or ocean ecologist. They are passionate about preserving the sea’s ecology and make wonderful teachers in this area. Because of their dolphin origin, this realm knows how to relax, play and flirt while meeting their responsibilities. Because they’re accustomed to swimming in pods, Incarnated Dolphins are usually very social. They love long and light-hearted discussions.

In my next post, I’ll be wrapping up this series on the Realms Of The Earth Angels. Please let me know how, or if, you connect with any of the hybrids I wrote about today. Are you a Merperson or an Incarnated Dolphin? Let me know your thoughts!

If, upon taking Doreen Virtue’s Earth Angels quiz, you feel like you belong to more than one realm, please read on. Many of us belong in what’s called a Blended Realm or are a Hybrid.

MYSTIC ANGELS

“When you look into the eyes of a Mystic Angel, you see compassion”

Mystic Angels are half Wise One and half Incarnated Angel. Mystic Angels share much of the same characteristics as Incarnated Angels, in that they’re loving, helpful, and caring. Yet, since they’ve had several lifetimes on Earth (as Incarnated Angels), they’re street-smart and edgy. They might cuss, abuse alcohol, or gamble…yet they’re still angels.

Mystic Angels appreciate rules because they abhor chaos. Like Incarnated Angels, they’ll apologize. Yet they only say “I’m sorry” because it’s a fast way to clear up conflict, and not because they feel guilty. Incarnated Angels have the corner among the realms on harboring guilt feelings. Mystic Angels have the hard-won wisdom that comes from many lifetimes of helping in the trenches of wars and conflict. Even though they’ve seen it all, Mystic Angels still retain faith in the goodness of humanity.

Mystic Angels aren’t timid in front of audiences compared to Incarnated Angels. With their Wise One heritage, Mystic Angels make wonderful teachers, speakers, and workshop presenters. They love to teach about healing techniques and offer tips for happy living. They aren’t afraid of the shadowy side of life. They clearly see the ego issues behind human dramas. The focus and language of a Mystic Angel is a bit darker and “earthier” than that of an Incarnated Angel, which is a realm that doesn’t like to look at, or acknowledge, problems or shadows.

One Mystic Angel is quoted in Doreen’s book as saying, “We like to use both Angel Oracle Cards and also Tarot Cards. We’re healers who are “know-it-alls”. Because we’ve been killed in previous lifetimes, we’re often afraid to come out of the spiritual closet. But when we do, we fly high and fast in putting our purpose into action.”

KNIGHTS PALADIN

“The eyes of a Knight Paladin are intense, clear, and focused, like a bodyguard on high alert”

Just what is a Knight Paladin? Doreen and her team had initially just called this group, “Knights”, but found that didn’t completely describe this group of people. The word ‘Knight’ makes one think of a warrior, and so they found that adding the term “Paladin” made much more sense. Paladin (pronounced pal-AH-den), refers to a magical or holy knight who crusades in the name of upholding goodness and order. Historical Paladins were wizards who cast spells to complete their missions.

Knights Paladin share many qualities with Mystic Angels in that they’re half Wise One and half angel. Mystic Angels express their angelic side through healing others, either with their teaching wisdom or with their energy. Knights Paladin represent the protective, guardian side of angels. Mystic Angels express the Archangel Raphael’s healing energy, while Knights Paladin express Archangel Michael’s sword-wielding energy.

Knights Paladin are the custodians of orderliness; and the upholders of truth, sacred secrets, and civility. They are trustworthy, able to keep secrets (unless leaking the secret would help uphold justice), and extremely helpful to loved ones and strangers. Knights Paladin feel uncomfortable in social settings, unless they’re discussing a topic of personal interest. They’re chivalrous and polite, yet they can also be staunch and unyielding when their values are threatened. Knights Paladin refuse to compromise when it comes to ethics. Remember that Incarnated Angels (which Knights Paladin are blended from) respect authority, organization and rules, especially when they believe in those rules.

Members of this realm served as Knights Templar; members of the Round Table; members of the twelve chansons degeste of medieval legend; and bodyguards of high-priests, high-priestesses, saints, and sages. Knights Paladin tend to have large bodies and muscular strength. They stand tall with egoless pride; and their eyes are intense, clear, and focused like a bodyguard on high alert. They notice everything.

This group has a lifelong fascination with knights, suits of armor, stories of the Round Table, dragons, and jousting. They love video games, books, and movies involving wartime strategies, sword fights, and redemption. Famous Knights Paladin include Joan of Arc, King Arthur, King David, and Sir Lancelot. Many of this group are drawn to armed services, security, and police work, which are modern equivalents of knight orders. They also join or read about secret spiritual societies such as the Freemasons, Knights Templar, and Rosicrucians. Yet, modern-day Knights Paladin often must take solo missions to fulfill their destinies. Instead of following the King’s orders, today’s Knights Paladin must follow the orders of their internal guidance. So joining military or police force may hamper the freedom to follow this inner wisdom, or could damper the voice itself.

Knights Paladin also have Eastern counterparts in Samurais and Shaolin Monks, who incorporate breath work, posture, self-discipline, and wisdom in their approaches to managing life. They make wonderful advocates and activists who champion the causes they believe in. They do well in areas of law, politics, writing, speaking, coaching, campaigning and leading. Knights Paladin who are Indigos can make intense and inspirational leaders.

And my apologies for the delay in writing this post; our Granddaughter was born and I’ve been helping out our daughter with this beautiful addition to her family. I so love this baby Piscean, and could just stare at her for hours! Please forgive this enamored Grandma, and leave a comment for me. Let me know if the Mystic Angels or Knights Paladin are the category of Earth Angels you fell into – I love hearing from you! ~
